Steve n I used to race moto-x. 1981,1982,1983. I remember Chapman Ks, one of the toughest tracks in the state. I dominated the 125 n 250 intermediate class. Steve was doing so good in the novice class. He would come with us to the races, he was family. I would reunite with Steve later in life and was going to visit with him. That visit was not to be, I had hoped to visit with him on another occasion. I was heartbroken when I heard of Steve's passing. This could not be real. Rest in Peace my brother. I will see you again.

It's Aug 2023 and I just found out Steve passed. He built my Dad and me the nicest and fastest race car we ever had. It took him a lot longer than expected because of his attention to detail. RIP Steve

What a special father and grandpa. Glad we got to know him! He was always so proud of Todd and Sara and the grandkids. He will be missed.
